  • EUR/GBP is hovering around 200-DMA at 0.8595, bias remains higher as long as pair holds above 5-DMA at 0.8554.
     
  • The major finds stiff resistance at 0.8595 (converged trendline and 200-DMA).
     
  • We see upside only on decisive break above. Momentum indicators on weekly charts are biased higher.
     
  • The pair has broken above weekly 50-SMA at 0.8535.
     
  • Weekly cloud top at 0.8635 is next major resistance above 0.8595. Scope then for test of 0.87 levels.
